Despite Sony not announcing the PlayStation 6 officially, fans and industry experts have been speculating on what kind of beast the next generation console will be.
The PlayStation 5 was released in November 2020 and much like every new console generation before that, the latest Sony machine set a new high bar of what is expected of the modern video game whether it be visuals, processing power, frames-per-second and more.

Over the last few months, we’ve seen endless speculation on the PlayStation 6 regarding its price and specifications, and as reported by Digital Trends (via the YouTube channel Moore’s Law is Dead), it’s been said that Sony will be continuing its partnership with AMD to developer the PS5 Pro and PS6.
Other than knowing what Sony is working with in terms of development, one of the benefits of continuing the partnership with AMD is that it makes the process of making the PS6 backwards compatible much easier, which is a huge win for those who will still enjoy playing PS5 games.
The PlayStation 6 is also expected to have an improved SSD to help keep up with the demands of next-gen video games and as such, it will likely require far more than 1TB of storage than the PS5 provides, especially as the digital age evolves.
What’s more, Insider Gaming claims that the PlayStation 6 will have a feature called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) which will reportedly help compatible games achieve a 4K resolution at 120fps or even 8K at 60fps.
Insider Gaming also reports that the PS5 Pro will implement PSSR but it understandably won't be to the full potential of the tech used in the PlayStation 6.
Seeing as Sony hasn't announced the PlayStation 6 yet, we have no recent date but it is expected to arrive in a few years. As for the PlayStation 5 Pro, many will hope that Sony will launch this new and improved PS5 by early next year.
